Contracted To The Alpha King

"Firecracker," he whispers into my ears like a prayer, while one hand rests seductively on my waist, the other closes dangerously on my throat. "Your obedience to me is not a choice. For as long as this lasts, I am your master. Understand?" I bite my tongue, refusing to answer, but this only makes him add pressure to my throat. I throw him a menacing glare as I struggle. Then he asks again, "Understand?" "Yes." Vanessa Collins has only ever been raised as a hunter who lived for one agenda : destroy the werewolf family that ruined hers. Xander Black is the Alpha of MoonVeil Pack a d the future Alpha King of all werewolves. Cold. Ruthless. Power is his only language, and fear is his currency. When fate forces them together, Vanessa becomes the center of a political whirlwind, and a target of an unknown enemy. To secure his ascension, Xander proposes something neither of them wants: a contract marriage. She'll be his bride. He'll be her protector. Both parties are forbidden from falling in love. Bounded by obligations, surrounded by hostility and buried blood-soaked pasts, their union becomes a battleground of control, desire, and buried truths. As pack politics tighten, and ancient forces awaken, Vanessa must decide whether revenge is worth more than her heart. Because loving the Alpha may just be the one dangerous thing that destroys her.
